[SOLVED] Help! Urgent! (Grub prompt after restoring XP)
Posted: Fri Nov 07, 2008 6:47 am
Booting with a XP cd with Recovery Console
and typing "fixmbr" solved the problem.
A.
---------------------
I am reinstalling XP Pro with the recovery CD sets sent by Lenovo, on a T41p that I bought used.
I had on it a Fedora distribution, that I wiped before to start the recovery process.
Now, after inserting all the recovery CDs, all the inflating-extracting automatic operation and a couple of restart asked by the installing process, I have got the
GRUB _
prompt.
What should I do?
I guess I have to wipe in some way the MBR, but how?
And then?
Should I restart entirely the recovery process?
thanks in advance for any suggestion
